Grey's River, Wyoming 2013

This year we were blessed yet again with the chance to spend a week camping in Wyoming. It is always such a wonderful time to be with family and enjoy relaxing in God's beautiful wilderness!

It was so fun to have Uncle Phil and Aunt Liz and their kids this year. They were in Utah for the wedding and wanted to extend their vacation so they spent a few days with us before heading further east for Yellowstone and some other fun sites.

Some of the highlights of this trip were:
Setting up tents in the rain
Rafting (and rafting in the rain)
Corn Hole (I.E. Bean bag game)
FOOD
Fires
Mafia
Hiking
Fishing

Our first night was a potluck - Grama provided the hot dogs and everyone else brought sides. This was the only meal the whole group had together, after this the Webbs and Terps did meals separately.

The great expedition! I didn't get any rafting pictures as my camera isn't waterproof. Hopefully I'll get some of Nate's footage that he took with his Go-Pro on our second trip.

Corn Hole excitement!

Pocket stew!

That's right, your personalized stew packet goes right on the fire! By the time it's ready you're so hungry it tastes like a little bite of savory heaven.

Nate & Rebecca - Shower

When in Utah we had a shower for Nate and Rebecca. This included kite flying, sandwich eating, volleyball playing, brownie sunday eating, and present opening. =)

We made sure to celebrate Aunt Liz's birthday because I threw Rebecca's OTHER shower on her anniversary! =)

Thank you for all the wonderful family and friends who made this evening memorable and fun!

Dad's 50th birthday!

The last thing that happened in July was Dad's birthday. I planned a small get together which is what he wanted. "Breakfast, sharing, praying, and singing." =)

I loved this card from Uncle Phil

I planned to make Crepes but miscalculated how long it would take me to make enough for that many people. Fortunately Amal came to my rescue and we pulled it off!

He got very adventurous with the crepes he was making!

We did an activity where we wrote down prayer requests then put them in balloons.We then exchanged balloons, popped them, and prayed for each other.

Dad...

Sharing time is always fun! I asked people to share a memory or something they appreciate about my dad.
